Picture for jjwdiver
John wanted a pic of me underwater. Here's one, in front of a good sized sea fan in Fiji.

Nice Larry! Than fan is HUGE...or are you very tiny?????
btw...if you face the 2nd stage down it wont freeflow. Knighthawk is a nice choice of BC.
I haven't been in the water since an Ice dive in February...I'm starting to twitch a bit now.
John

There were bigger fans, believe it or not!
I know about the facing the second stage down; I didn't realize it was free-flowing at the time!
I haven't gotten wet for a couple of weeks now. It's almost time to go out again!

Nice Picture! Glad to see your face, as good looking as ever! 
How is the camera holding up? Pictures on land? Any visitors? Comming back to MN for a visit anytime soon?
FYI: The 90 is still going strong, 58 too for that matter |

Wow, a man of 1000 questions!
The camera's doing fine. I just bought an external strobe to get less back scatter and better lighting on my subjects. Gotta play with it some on land, first.
I have several land pics. Send me an e-mail and I'll invite you to view them (and other diving pics) at Kodak Picture Gallery.
No visitors and no plans for visits to Minnesota. As always, you're welcome to come hang out for a while!

Can you remind me exactly what Island you live on? Would I have to fly into the big island and then catch a hop over to visit you? Any idea what tickets are going for?

If you look at my "location" you'll see I'm on Maui.
You CAN get a direct flight to Maui from Minneapolis but they are few and expensive. Sometimes you can get a flight to Seattle/San Francisco/Oakland/Los Angeles and then direct from there to Maui.
I have no idea what current rates are. Sometimes "specials" are listed on a web site called travelzoo.com (I happen to own stock in this company) or you can sign up to get their weekly specials by e-mail. I seem to remember that roundtrip from Oakland was either $299 or $399 no too long ago.
